This half term, we have started our new English unit ‘Playscripts’. To help us with this, we have based our playscript learning around The Wizard of Oz! So far, we have learnt the four main features of a playscript, which are, character list, setting the scene, stage directions and dialogue. We have also learnt why they are important.
Today, 4W had the opportunity to improve a basic Wizard of Oz playscript by setting the scene and adding stage directions. After they edited and improved their playscript, the children then had a chance to act this out to the rest of the class using all the added features.
Please take a look at the video and slideshow below which showcases some of our fantastic acting!
Challenge:
Can you give an example of each feature?
Can you explain why each feature is important?
